Hopelessly in Love is the debut album by English lovers rock singer Carroll Thompson, released in early 1981 by Carib Gems Records. The album followed, and includes, her two Leonard Chin-produced singles "I'm So Sorry" and "Simply in Love", which topped the British reggae charts. Thompson co-created C & B Productions, a first for a female reggae singer in Britain, and under this credit wrote and produced the album, working additionally with producer Anthony Richards. Backed by Thompson's C & B band, the album exemplifies the soul-infused mellow reggae style typical to lovers rock and Thompson's sweetly voice, with her songs discussing themes of romance and love. Upon release, the album reached number 22 on the UK Indie Albums chart but did not make the national albums chart and received little airplay. Despite this, the album eventually sold over 35,000 copies, an unusually high amount for a lovers rock album, and is considered a classic of the genre, helping establish Thompson on the British reggae scene. Singers Darren Hayman and Sarah Cracknell have named it an influence on their own work, and in 2007, The Guardian named it among "1000 Albums to Hear Before You Die".
